Geez, Beatsy, besides the outgassing of superglue, these are astounding images.
For those of you who are nonchalant about superglue, it outgasses very strongly and you don't want it to be used anywhere around optics. Superglues outgassing is employed widely in police fingerprint capture.

I move from the glue stage to the studio quite quickly. I am after fly eye colors that on dolichopodidae can quickly fade. If you have more time then perhaps it may not be an issue, but fogging an expensive objective’s front surface would be an awful shame.
